Introduction
Momentum One Dimension Collision Model
The motion of a body of mass m and velocity v is described by a vector quantity known as momentum p where
p = mv
When objects collide, whether trains, cars, billiard balls, shopping carts, or your foot and the sidewalk, the results can be complicated. Yet even in the most chaotic of collisions, as long as there are no net external forces acting on the colliding objects, one principle always holds and provides an excellent tool for understanding the collision. That principle is called the conservation of linear momentum which states that
The total momentum of a system remains constant provided that no external resultant force acts on the system
For two bodies colliding linearly, it is written mathematically as a vector equation
Total initial momentum = total final momentum
m1.u1 + m2.u2 = m1.v1 + m2.v2
If external forces (such as friction) are ignored, the total momentum of two carts prior to a collision (left side of the equation) is the same as the total momentum of the carts after the collision (right side of the equation).
Collisions are classified into elastic (or perfectly elastic), inelastic and completely inelastic.
There is also a concept of the kinetic energy of a moving body is stated mathematically by the following equation:
KE1 = ½ m1.v12
Main Simulation View
The simulation has 2 collision carts on frictionless floor and wheels.
Sliders
Explore the sliders allows varying the variables.
* mass of cart ONE, mass_1, m1 in kg
* initial velocity of cart ONE, u1 in m/s
* mass of cart TWO, mass_2, m2 in kg
* initial velocity of cart TWO, u2 in m/s
Drop Down Menu
Allows for selecting what kind of collision is simulated.
A Perfectly elastic collision is defined as one in which both conservations of momentum and conservation of kinetic energy are observed
A Perfectly Inelastic collision is defined as one in which conservation of momentum is observed but the colliding carts stick together after the collision with kinetic energy loss
